Day 10 - Pages 8, 9 and 10

Boy, have I been behind! I only just caught up after missing Saturday's and doing two more for Sunday and Monday. Anyway, so here we open up the first hint of the actual plot, right now. The final page shows the Happy Moving van. Note that this is the first mention of Hcaz in the whole comic so far. Unfortunately, there is no shading on the final page. I don't know what I was thinking, but anyway there is a rich, detailed environment to make up for my poor memory. Ugh.

Anyway, that van gave me more trouble then I like to admit. Coloring it was a nightmare, so I didn't even want to think about shading. The houses were also a nightmare, mostly because I had to keep the colors exactly the same from the first page. Anyway, thats all for today. Maybe tomorrow I will have enough energy to go over the process of making a page.

Day 3 - Pages 2 and 3

Well, I'm back on the good old computer!

And guess what... Two more pages!

Yay! I bet you're glad you aren't doing this.

OK, anyway, we have our main characters' name mentioned, and we have our first little "Store Problem." Big Fist can't find his hero-statis podlink. You will notice that Big Fist's logo, "BF" can also be interpreted as "Best Friend." I probably will incorporate this into the story at some point.

Ah... The shading. How nice it looks. OK, enough of that. Now to...

OK, there were a few technical issues with these two pages. The first is, I messed up a panel.

So I had to add a panel to the other page and move up all the other panels on the page to get things even.

Also, my coloring got a little lousy on these two, mostly, I guess, cause I didn't do the Brightness and Contrast right. You will also notice Zach's eyes in the first panel of the second page look off slightly. Thats because I had to redraw one. And in the second panel of the second page, the aisle thing, (cabinet? product holder? shelf?) is completely out of perspective (Not that anything isn't!).

Now for...

OK, last time I bailed out on this one, but it has to be solved at some point, so...

Yes, I am going to have to run around like a chicken on fire after I finish this comic trying to sell to publishers. I am not well known, and I am not very old, and plus I don't have burrowing eyes and a long beard, so you can tell already nobody will be impressed by me. So the fact remains, which publisher?

Well... Maybe I'll try Tokyopop first. They do lots of graphic novels. If not I may have to try some small time, unofficial, small business that nobody knows. Hmm or BOOM!Kids maybe. I'm not sure. But what I can be sure of is that this blog is going to have 365+ posts on it after I finish. :P

OK, thats all for now. Have fun! Look out!
